One of the greatest film comedians of all time, Buster Keaton was known for his athletic ability and the inventiveness of his gags ranging from broad slapstick to sly satire. This five-disc collection begins with his earliest shorts as a supporting player for famed movie comedian Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle. Disc Two gathers three of Keaton's first starring roles in shorts from the early 1920s. The third disc contains the feature-length classic The General, widely recognized as Keaton's best movie and one of the greatest comedies ever filmed. The set concludes with two talkies: Parlor, Bedroom, and Bath (1931), a pre-Code sex farce variation of The Taming of the Shrew; and Speak Easily (1932), with Jimmy Durante.
